I HAD NO IDEA ABOUT THE SKIN TAGS TRICK. I am elated to try this AND sharpen the 3 pairs of tweezermans I own (I only bought a new pair because I lost my old ones, which of course turned up once I purchased new ones).

That's what always happens! You're about to feel incredibly skin-tag-less and plucked!!

Immaculate ratings, no notes! Do you have to be a member of JFC to shop? If not, I might send my mom there!

I have a college tea tree oil story (so you know it’ll be good). It was 2011, and I was trying to deal with my transitionally aged skin without resorting to the paint thinner known as Proactiv, nor the sandpaper known as the St. Ives apricot scrub. K-beauty was JUST hitting the internet for those non-Asians in the know. I read that tea tree oil was a great ✨natural✨treatment for acne, so I bought some from Trader Joe’s. I brought it into my bathroom, washed my face, and proceeded to put it DIRECTLY onto my face: no dilution.

I almost SCREAMED. It hurt so badly!!! Then an older online friend saw my Tumblr post, laughed at me (valid), and told me you needed to considerably dilute tea tree oil before applying it to your skin, and I never used it again. 🥲 The chemical burn honestly blended in with the Minnesotan windburn look paler people get in the winters anyway, but still!!
